Killer responses! Thank you all! Yeah I knew the power of the CB1100 would be FAR superior to any of the others I listed. And, honestly, I think it will be okay on power. I don't find myself thinking this will be a hot rod bike, but then again, I have made hot rods out of stuff I probably shouldn't...
I'd like to know where to get some of the light-weight gear I saw mentioned here. I think that would prove most worthwhile after a decent exhaust. I have been hunting down a particular brand... And I've totally forgotten it since. Oh well. Looking for a real throaty, burbly noise, like on much older CBs. Really fell in love with the noise.
Now another question! This one might be a bit taboo, so no obligation to answer. What did those of you with 2014 DLXs pay? The MSRP here is $11,899 (shown at local dealer), but I know these aren't exactly flying off shelves, so I'm just looking for a good starting point. Thanks again!
Samurider.com has a nice selection of exhaust systems for the CB1100. I believe the stock 4 into 1 weighs 25 lbs. Some of the options on Samurider cut that by more than half.

They also sell the Over Racing aluminum swingarms, which are also about 50% lighter than stock.
